I did find it interesting that NPR had already refuted many of Fox's claims before the sun had even came up Friday morning.
In a week, people will forget that FOX was claiming they had only been in the country for a couple of months and were blaming Obama's immigration policies. NPR refuted that by having kids on who went to high school with them and this was at like 5 A.M. and FOX reported it up until atleast 12

They were correct.
Lose your political bias.
There was no arrest on Wednesday when they claimed it, what are you talking about 60 minutes later ? do you mean Friday, that is a whole another story.
by the way, the source of this thread is partisan.

The arrest took place on Friday evening - I guess that you didn't know.
Fox News was the most accurate station during the entire week.
They were reporting there was an arrest made when there was not. So no, they didn't get it right.
Fox's coverage was as misinformed as CNN's and MSNBC's. Actually it was somewhat poorer in that Fox was the first to broadcast an image of a wrong suspect.
I eventually gave up on cable and network news and began following Twitter, Instagram, and internet police scanners.
Hilariously, so did Fox, CNN, and MSNBC; as the manhunt narrowed it became obvious they were relying on Twitter's citizen journalists for information.

They truly have become the people's voice.
They are fair and balanced
Harrier, On Wednesday FOX claimed a suspect had been arrested. They were wrong, there was no arrest on Wednesday. I doubt the person you responded to was talking about Friday.
They were also wrong about the skin color of the person who was arrested in the end. They were just as wrong as the other networks.

Sorry - I was rather busy on Wednesay - I was busy learning and studying material on which I will be tested on this Monday.
I was correct on what I posted about the networks in question in more recent actions.
